Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

Hello this is my first post and really need help.  Been over month still cant solve issue.

Do I need a modded bios to solve this problem?  I hope I can be helped.



I have a Supermicrio X10DAL-i   motherboard. Bios rev 2.0b  latest.
I have not changed anything in the bios settings.

I have 2 of the same identical chips. ES chips.
Xeon E5-2683 v4 ES Broadwell-EP same stepping etc..

when I put either chip in the 1st chip slot i can boot to windows10 no problem.

When i add a 2nd chip i get black screen no post no sound.

I even got another Supermicro X10DAL replaced by Supermicro and still no solution.
I even removed components to minimal specs, like ram, graphics card etc...


Here is my setup:


1. Supermicro X10DAL-1 (latest bios 2.0 from supermicro)
2. G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 series 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 2400Mhz DIMM F4-2400C15Q-32GRK
3. 2x MSI RX 470 4gb both installed running.
4. 1 Xeon E5-2683 v4 ES Broadwell-EP (2nd cpu not installed still)
5. Raidmax 850watt PSU
6. 1TB hard drive Sata

Thank you all.

Tell sSpec of your Xeons.
Post screenshots of first (CPU) & third (Mainboard) tabs of CPU-Z with one CPU.
P.S. In most cases the latest versions of BIOS aren't recommended for ES CPU using.

This CPU is undocumented. Does it support multiprocessing?

Try previous version of BIOS:
R 2.0 - X10DAL5_C18.ZIP
R 1.0 - X10DALI5_306.ZIP
